The number I keep coming back to explain american behavior is the number of people who believe in evolution. It's less than half and among the lowest in industrial countries.  Americans don't believe in science and barely train engineers. The number of STEM students America college system put out annually is 1/4 of the China's number and most of them are foreign students anyway.

I'll need to crack them out again and see if it holds up now that I'm older and angrier/more damaged

Trump couldn't do half of this poo poo if it wasn't the Republican's wet dream. They have been excellently leveraging the institutional edge they had in the Senate. the House, and the Supreme Court for most of his tenure. Trump is doing a whole slew of poo poo which would have gotten shut down hard had he attempted it. I do think Obama was ultimately a disappointment but he was also shafted from the start. Heck, the fallout from Obamacare was bad enough and thar was legit legislating. Munin has issued a correction as of 17:46 on Apr 16, 2020 |

Had Obamacare been Singlepayer, people would not have paid as much and thus not hated it. Plus, they would've actually been able to keep their doctors. Biden's biggest weakness is that he wants to take us back to a time only old democrats (the minority of olds) remember fondly because they didn't deal with the poo poo.
